Differences With Cancer As a Senior?
|
|
Are there differences between getting cancer at 30 and 60, assuming you are in pretty good health and never really been sick? How well can an aging system handle radiation and chemo?

If you are in good condition and can take what they put you through it is of course better for anyone. Doctors try and match what treatment they give you and your health no matter what the age. All they want it to battle the cancer, so they try to give you the bet fighting chance you can have no matter what your age is.

I agree. I have seen many and heard of many more people with many more years of experience than a 30 year old undergoing chemo and such with great success.
